Gold prices fell on Friday to their lowest finish so far this month, as record highs for the key U.S. stock market indexes lured investors away from the precious metal ahead of U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy meeting next week. Prices tallied a loss of roughly 1.9% after posting gains in each of the last three weeks. December gold fell $4.10, or 0.3%, to settle at $1,325.20 an ounce. That was the lowest finish since Aug. 31, according to FactSet data.
